hope4fall2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Has anyone here heard from EPS at Berkeley? The deadlines were pretty early (Dec 21) and decisions from other departments at Berkeley have started going out. Berkeley was a reach school for me and I dont really think I stand a chance of getting in. But not knowing is really killing me.. Infact, has anyone heard from any school at all??
LCBucky Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Haven't heard from any USA schools yet I was told l should start hearing mid Feb or so..... but shoot, the earlier the better! ...is it february yet?
hope4fall2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 The wait definitely is a pain isn't it?? Well, atleast you have been accepted by one school, so thats a little less of a worry..
LCBucky Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Ah yes, that first acceptance was quite a relief! And I see you have an interview with Yale? Congrats! Let's hope we both have more acceptances coming our way!
hope4fall2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Author Posted January 20, 2012 Lets hope so.. .. I did have an interview with Yale..Ended up bombing it.. Should have been much better prepared.. All the best!!!
LCBucky Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Aw i'm sure you did much better than you think. I know I have a tendency to walk away from interviews/exams/GRE/etc. thinking i've done TERRIBLE but in the end its all in my head. So let's hope thats the case this time! Best of luck!
Nicole_ya Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 The EPS said the result will be available in a week or two.
hope4fall2012 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) Don't you hate it when they say a week or two??? That additional week is going to be horrible.. But thanks a ton for letting us know.. Edited February 1, 2012 by hope4fall2012
parable151 Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Do you think that means rejection and interviews? Probably not acceptances yet? Seems very early compared to their track record.
hope4fall2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Posted February 2, 2012 I hope not.. But looking at the Results Survey, seems like that.. On the Results Survey, even the rejects are given out during March though.. Fingers crossed..
hope4fall2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Posted February 2, 2012 Does anyone know whether Berkeley EPS does interviews or do they just give out admits and rejects?? I do know that they admit around 10 people out of 110 applicants on average..I don't know whether I can survive those odds..
InquilineKea Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Well, the department adviser did tell me that admissions is done on a per-adviser basis, so applicants are competing for the same adviser, rather than for the entire department (I know I told you this before - but I'll just say it for everyone else).

Yup.. But all the acceptances will be sent out at the same time right?? Also, does this mean that there is no adcom as such? And any idea whether there will be interviews?
